[I woke up early today and waited at the Xiao Family Manor. As expected, Xun Er came here to shop, just as I remembered, and was entangled by Jia Lie Ao. Xiao Yanzi, who happened to be looking for a Level 1 wood-attribute magic core in the manor, came across them and offered help. (√)]
Evidently, Chu Xiao was still verifying the authenticity of his Rebirth, which was frighteningly cautious.
[In my previous life, Xiao Yanzi and Jia Lie Ao engaged in a war of words. When the latter couldn't help but make a move, I received a message and rushed over, driving him away.]
[In this life, I waited in advance. The moment the incident occurred, I directly made my move, severely injuring him and turning the tables. (Recording events that happened in the morning)]
The girls: "..."
You sure know how to play.
[The Jialie Family and the Oba Family were once minor families in Utan City, subservient to the Xiao Family. However, after the Xiao Family suffered a major change, they chose to betray them, seizing the opportunity to snatch many of the Xiao Family's industries near Utan City. They are ungrateful ingrates.]
[Now that I have been Reborn, even with only Dou Shi cultivation, I do not fear them. Moreover, I will soon be able to refine Medicinal Pills to help my aunt recover from her injuries. With her Dou Ling strength, suppressing the two families with my cooperation will not be an issue at all.]
"Refine Medicinal Pills?"
"Recover Dou Ling injuries?"
The girls' gazes changed once again.
Chu Xiao's casual emotional entry, though brief, revealed crucial information.
He was actually also an Alchemist!
"No wonder Chu Xiao Gege acted a bit rashly today. It turns out he had a plan all along."
Inside a uniquely scenic pavilion in the Xiao Family, Xun Er had just smoothed her skirt and sat down when she received a notebook update notification.
"However, Chu Xiao Gege's Dou Qi attribute is lightning with a hint of wind."
"How can he refine medicine?"
With this question, Xun Er continued to read the notebook.
[After teaching Jia Lie Ao a lesson, I took the opportunity to buy everything a stall owner was selling.]
[In my previous life, Xiao Yanzi bought a magic core from this stall for five hundred gold coins and also took a black iron piece as an extra.]
[At the time, I thought he overpaid, but the next day, he obtained a Profound Rank Low-grade Fighting Skill from that black iron piece, which made me look foolish.]
"Profound Rank Low-grade Fighting Skill!?"
The expressions of all the girls with copies changed.
On the Dou Qi Continent, Fighting Skills are no less important than Dou Qi Cultivation Techniques. Mastering a profound Fighting Skill can allow a Cultivator to unleash stronger combat power during battle.
Fighting Skills, like Cultivation Techniques, are also divided into Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow Ranks. Ordinary people can at most access Yellow Rank Advanced ones on the market; stronger ones require joining a faction to obtain.
However, the Dou Qi Continent is vast, and there will always be some Heaven And Earth Treasures, and legacies from predecessors that are lost or forgotten for some reason, and later acquired by a lucky individual, such as the black iron piece Chu Xiao intercepted from Xiao Yan.
People like Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin, who are currently at the bottom, were simply amazed that Chu Xiao obtained a Profound Rank Low-grade Fighting Skill so easily, earning a large sum of gold coins out of thin air.
But people like Feng Qing'er, Xun Er, and Yun Yun clearly realized the terrifying nature of Chu Xiao's future memories.
He could find and intercept many Heaven And Earth Treasures and legacies from predecessors on the Dou Qi Continent in advance.
Not only that, he also knew many people's weaknesses, personalities, and so on.
It was truly... terrifying.
[This Fighting Skill is called Absorbing Palm. It was left in the black iron piece by an Alchemist and requires strong Soul perception to obtain the Legacy. When cultivated to Major Achievement, it can absorb a thousand-jin boulder. If encountering an enemy, its fierce suction can forcibly pull out a person's blood.]
[The strongest Fighting Skill openly displayed by the Xiao Family is only Profound Rank Intermediate, and only my uncle and a few Elders can Cultivate it. This level of Fighting Skill is already very precious, but to me now, it is nothing. However, it is suitable for Xiao Yanzi, whose cultivation is still low.]
[Once he reaches Dou Zhe, I will give him stronger Fighting Skills. A small goal: defeat Nalan Yanran in one move three years from now.]
Yun Yun: "..."
She felt a bit sorry for her disciple.
"Esteemed guest, how may I help you?"
Two Mittel Auction House attendants stepped forward, their faces adorned with professional smiles.
"Give me the best room." Yun Yun flipped her wrist, and a card appeared between her fingers.
This was a VIP card issued by the Mittel Family to esteemed guests, allowing them to enjoy many benefits at the Mittel Auction House.
"This way, esteemed one."
The two attendants' breaths hitched, and they immediately changed their address.
One of them was responsible for taking Yun Yun to her room, while the other went to find Ya Fei, the person in charge of the auction house in Utan City.
A major figure beyond their grasp had arrived today!
[This Cultivation Technique, Absorbing Palm...]
[The Cultivation method is...]
[The Dou Qi circulation path is...]
After Yun Yun settled into the VIP room, she ate the fruit brought by the attendant and continued to read the notebook.
To make it feel more real, she even summoned a physical copy visible only to herself and manually turned the pages.
"Why is he writing about Fighting Skill Cultivation methods now?"
Yun Yun finished reading all the latest content, feeling a bit speechless.
She wanted to peek at more information; she wasn't interested in a Profound Rank Low-grade Fighting Skill.
[Sure enough, writing about Fighting Skill Cultivation methods and insights can also help restore memories.]
[And I don't need to specifically record it; I can let the notebook complete the recording on its own without distraction.]
[Then, in the future, when cultivating Cultivation Techniques, Fighting Skills, secret arts, and re-familiarizing myself with Alchemy, I can record my insights at any time.]
[This is simply a good way to pad the word count; I don't have to deliberately record my life.]
The girls: "..."
Although they hadn't heard the term "pad the word count," they somehow understood its meaning now.
Chu Xiao was happy, having found a lazy method, but they were very unhappy.
Compared to boring Cultivation insights, they preferred to gossip—bah, to obtain information.
But the next moment, their thoughts changed.
After carefully reading the notebook, they were surprised to find some information appearing in their minds.
Without a doubt, they had successfully achieved initial mastery of "Absorbing Palm," this Profound Rank Low-grade Fighting Skill.
"Absorbing Palm!"
In Dan Region Cao City, Cao Ying was in her boudoir, simultaneously refining medicine and reading the notebook. Suddenly, she reached out towards a table beside her.
Dou Qi left her body, transforming into a fierce wind that enveloped several medicinal herbs before returning to her hand.
"It really works, it's not a hallucination!"
Cao Ying's smile was radiant. She happily jumped up on the spot, clapping her hands together forcefully.
Her talent was excellent, and she possessed Advanced Cultivation Techniques, making her cultivation speed far surpass her peers, so her Realm was decent.
However, to become an excellent Alchemist, she had learned to identify medicinal herbs, memorize Pill Formulas, master fire control, and enhance her Soul Power since childhood, which left her with little time to practice Fighting Skills, resulting in a slight lack of means when fighting others.
But now, relying on the notebook's copy, this treasure, she could easily achieve initial mastery by simply reading Chu Xiao's insights on learning Fighting Skills. Then, by cultivating it herself, she could achieve twice the results with half the effort.
And achieving initial mastery after just one read, perhaps reading it more times could even increase her proficiency?
A Profound Rank Low-grade Fighting Skill was beneath her, but when Chu Xiao recorded Earth Rank, Heaven Rank Fighting Skills and Cultivation Techniques, and even Major Thousand Worlds Cultivation Techniques and methods in the future, that would be a Heaven-Defying opportunity.
This was not padding the word count; it was clearly welfare distribution time.
Was this what the copy's rules referred to as "discovering benefits on your own"?
"Chu Xiao, this Young Miss rather likes you now."
